Why is task 1 no longer passing?

I'm tasked with 3 coding issues. I am pass question 1 & 2, however when I go to submit 3, it tells me number 1 is no longer valid. I re check the work, and it still has issues. When I revisit the page, I don't change any code and submit my answer its right. I've gone through this process about 15 times already.

The message may be misleading, but the issue is that your main element is not placed around all the required parts. The instructions say to place "place the h2 and articles inside ...", but it currently is around only the h2.
